Hello again,
After doing all the stuff from my other tutorial I figured I would jump further into custom boot animations. As I said before, I document everything I do and this my start to finish method for creating and installing custom boot animations. Some of the significant things about this method; are you only need the part0 folder and there is no limit to the amount of images you use.

ROOT IS NOT REQUIRED FOR THIS and there is no need to make changes to your default BA!

Download attached png’s, or use your own. (Thank you b00sted4fun for the awesome boot animation!)

Name them in sequential order starting from 0. (ex- 0.png, 1.png, 2.png, 3.png)
place them in the png\bootanimation\part0 folder you have just created.

Thank you for all of your hard work on this. Especially for reducing the number of image files. I was just about to start tearing into this, and I was a bit uncertain about modifying the text file that supports the animation, or playing with large quantity of image files.

One quick question, and I apolgize if this was answered in the other thread(s) or is obvious. If we botch up the imagery, will the phone still boot up, albiet with a black or botched animation screen? This process looks like a fun way to fiddle with the phone without getting too deep into trouble.

Yup. Any mistakes just mean your file doesnt play; however, the phone still boots. also the default zip and desc.txt are provided above as well.

C,

Thank you again sir, I like the idea of having a phone mod to piddle around with that is low on the brickability index. Now to find some robust software for possibly dealing with AV files other than still imagery.

Only sad thing is that you hardly ever have to reboot so you don't get to enjoy this as often as you would if you were using a WM phone. I might have to pull this out when I'm around some iPhone lemmings though.
